Chrisitian Richey is a talented running back out of Hillcrest that is just coming off a really productive freshman season in their offense. What impresses me most about Richey’s play is his toughness and powerful playstyle. Despite being on the smaller side as a back, Richey takes hits better than most- he has some fantastic contact balance, can plow through defenders, shed tackles, and plays a really physical game that sets him apart from many. In addition to his physicality, Richey has a good amount of speed and elusiveness that allow him to really maneuver around the field and make defenders miss. Richey was super productive throughout his freshman season- he ended the year with 67 rushes for 543 yards and 6 touchdown, proving to be a dynamic, game-changing back off of just a few carries. Keep an eye on him going into his sophomore season, what he was able to accomplish last season was very impressive and he has lots of potential!
Highlights
Karlos May Karlos May 6’3″ | 280 lbs | DL Ramsay | 2027 AL is a super talented defensive lineman out of Ramsay that has a ton of potential to be a big star both on their defense, and in the recruiting world as well. May is a hard guy to slow down in the trenches. At 6’3 280, he’s a big guy and also has a ton of athleticism to pair with his size. May is really quick, strong, has fast hands, and uses his motor to consistently pressure or pursue the ball carrier each snap. It doesn’t matter if he’s going against the run or pass, May has the ability to quickly shed blocks and make plays on the ball. He does a great job wrapping up on his tackles and rarely lets anyone get by him in the trenches. Last fall, May was able to record 15 total tackles (5 for loss) and 2 sacks on the season. He recently picked up an offer from Ole Miss, and with how well he played last fall, we can expect to see him add more offers in the future!
Jacoby Snow Jacoby Snow 6’0″ | 275 lbs | OL McIntosh | 2027 AL is an offensive tackle prospect out of McIntosh that really put together a solid freshman season last fall. Snow helped McIntosh’s offense open up a lot, he does a lot of good work down in the trenches and is a reliable anchor on the left side of the line. When their offense is running the ball, Snow uses his agility and power to move around to different levels of the field and make some devastating blocks for the ball carrier. He really cleans up different lanes with a lot of ease and makes life way easier for the running back. In the passing game, Snow is also really reliable protecting the quarterback. He responds well to a variety of pass rushers and their moves, doesn’t allow much pressure, and rarely loses leverage against defensive linemen. Keep watch of him going forward, he’s one of the top freshman offensive linemen in the state and has a lot to offer!
